01About Theresa
Theresa Mayhew meets people where they are and helps them cope with stressful life moments. She explains things simply and focuses on practical steps a person can try between sessions. Theresa is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC - with 14 years of experience working with adults facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and problems with anger and addiction.
She uses straightforward, skills-based methods so clients leave each week with something to practice.
Background and approach
Theresa often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thinking patterns and Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotion regulation and coping skills. She also uses tools from Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy to set realistic goals and keep progress moving. Theresa has spent much of her career helping people recover from trauma and manage mood disorders, including bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress.
She pays attention to how life events like divorce, loss, or career shifts affect daily routines and relationships. Her style aims to be collaborative and goal-oriented while honoring each person’s pace. Theresa is based in Georgia and practices as an LPC.
Sessions are conducted in English and she is available to work with international clients as well. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to help guide scheduling and initial planning. Theresa frames therapy as a series of small changes that add up over time.
She encourages people to try strategies between sessions and to talk about what does and does not work so plans can be adjusted.

How Theresa’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Theresa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes to shift mood and daily functioning, which helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and practicing better interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Theresa will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest strategies to try. Decisions about which methods to use are made together and can be adjusted as progress is tracked.
The practical benefits of online therapy often include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online sessions can make it easier to keep consistent appointments, to check in during life transitions, and to practice coping skills between meetings.
